I'm guessing their test is something like a matter of seconds at at a given frequency...just to make sure they're working. Breaking-in allows you to play the sub at higher volumes without risking damage. Have you never noticed that new subs seem to become louder after a week or so? Probably because the materials become broken-in, which allows it to operate more efficiently. I can believe the break-in theory though, the materials that make up a sub's moving parts are much like say a baseball glove, or hockey skates. I'm sure these materials are easier to tear or damage when they aren't as flexible as they would be after being used repeatedly.

 

u guys think the treo will be ok to use as a daily driver?

 

i think im going to go buy the treo 2morrow. sorta wondering if im makin the right choice.

 

I don't know if it's the same thing, but I installed the cdt cl-6x's in my mom's truck one at a time because I was running 16 gauge (stock=~22, lol) to them and it was a pain in the ass. I pretty much cranked them right out of the box, and on each one I found that the midbass sucked out of the box but got much better after a bit of play time. It was very noticeable, especially when fading left to right between a new speaker and one that had seen an hour or so of music.

 

bought the treo today. damn this thing is big. time to build a box

 

That's basically the exact same concept. A mid is just a smaller version of a sub anyways.
